The fourth way, of course, is to simply have 'ö' appear directly as a character in the document, and set the correct character encoding. (Hint: UTF-8 is an excellent choice for "the correct character encoding", if you get to choose.) -- \ “With Lisp or Forth, a master programmer has unlimited power | `\ and expressiveness.
